they said, that they would convert gems to gem keys. Itās still a super low amount of gems though
So they as I see it think because you get 200/300 gems in Guild Wars if in B1/B2 that balances things out
āSomeā apparently means everything at the later task tiers, if weāre only getting 140 Gems now.
Sorry i puked in my mouth
This is really disgusting

Thanks for that mate.
Well, if this is the same tomorrow on Console then i need advice. The gems going from 590 to 140 is really effecting VIP chest pulls and lower guilds. I didnt pay to get shards etc i paid to open VIP chests.
Unless they are going to change how VIP chests work? I doubt it.
There has to grounds for a complaint now surely?

Iām going to examine all the numbers tomorrow. There were a lot of things shifted around and Iām going to have to explain the value I give a Diamond and try to extrapolate the value they gave a Diamond.

Yeah, I was guesstimating 250 Gems, which would have already cut it by more than 50%. This isā¦just, wow.
Raw Gems have been nerfed 76% from the Blue guardian.
On what planet is this even remotely fair to the players, especially VIPs? 35 Gem Keys doesnāt help VIPs buy VIP chests.

Awesome, thanks for that. Was the confirmation I needed that I didnāt screw up the math.
All the data is now entered. Biggest casualty of course is Gems, reduced from 590 to 140, representing a 450 Gem reduction in payout. All other currencies were also reduced to a lesser degree, except Gem Keys, which according to naive calculations represents a mitigation of 170 Gems of ālostā value, assuming intent to use Gems on Gem Keys. In this case, the reduction of Gems could be considered to be 590 to 310. However, Gems are a much more flexible currency, so this is a dubious assertion.
Biggest gains were in Shards and Diamonds. These are new, and basic Guild Tasks now award 3,000 Shards and 150 Diamonds.

If you want gems you had better hand them your credit card because you are going to need it!

I didnāt puke, but I am as disgusted as you are. Theyāve reduced the number of gems from Guild Tasks from 590 to 140 (4-fold reduction) and removed the gems from Legendary Tasks.
Everything about the 3.1 patch screams āMONEY GRABā to me. 
And they didnāt even fix most of the bugs that have been around for a yearā¦
I guess itās time to find another game to play. I might as well start browsing the Steam store as soon as I finish changing my 2014 review of Gems of War to someting more accruately describing the current state of the gameā¦

Wait a minute, are you saying 80 stupid gems keys worth 450 gems? No freaking way!!!

Well if you consider it would cost 10 Gems to open a Gem chest, they in their eyes those keys are worth 800 Gems!
Yup they could change it for colored jewels at least
That, at least, is a better value proposition. If I used 450 gems to buy gem keys, I would only get 50 gem keys. Everything else about this seems disappointing. The one hope I have is that my less-active guild sees an activity increase from the speed boosts, which should let us access higher-ranked tasks than we used to.
There is no 80 gems keys because we get before 63 gem keysā¦
Itās only 17 additional gem keys.
